Had my first weekend with the car. Drove about 160 miles, I have to add myself to the spreadsheet. First of all, I feel so incredibly lucky and grateful that my first time being in/driving a 911 was when I drove my T away from the dealership after delivery! With that said, I don’t think my opinion is worth anything since I can’t compare it to any other 911’s. But I will still say a few things anyway.
My absolute favorite thing about the T is the manual gearbox. This thing is AMAZING! Firm, sturdy, precise, just phenomenal. It shifts so well! If anyone who is still in the ordering process here and can’t decide between a manual and PDK, do yourself a favor and get the manual!
My absolute least favorite thing about the car is the base audio. This thing sucks and Porsche should be ashamed of themselves for fitting this as a basic option in a car that has $117k base price. I don’t want to hear any of this “you should have gotten Burmeister”. $117k car should not come with a sh#t stereo period! I can live with it though, aside from that car is perfect.
Generally great fit and finish, handling is amazing, taking corners in the car made me feel like I was a little kid again going down the slide for the first time.
I would also like to highlight something that I don’t think was really said on here (probably because it belongs in the general 992 thread, but I’ll say it anyway) suspension in normal comfort mode is so good! Just cruising around twisty roads Sunday morning with the windows down was a pure joy.
Here are some photos from delivery day and a couple from after I got the car. I haven’t really had a chance to take any photos since all I want to do is drive it.
Looks awesome! This is leather with Carrera T package in gray? Same as what I've got on my order.
Thank you! I have the leather interior with Sportex inserts. I don't have the T package. The rest is deviated stitching and seatbelts in GT Silver and the white dials.
I might go to this PCA event on Saturday, but 2 hours away for me. See how weather looks later. Porsche swap meet sounds interesting. My bro has bought countless things from them.
If any T-mate is going from NJ/NY and want to cruise there together, let me know.
Thank you for posting this or I wouldn't have known! I'll be going up there this Saturday!
Attention 9/9 T Meet participants:
I have below as 100% for sure showing up for it. I’m going to be ordering T-shirts soon using T-meet graphics provided by Tourenwagen. Let me know now (order needs to go in soon) if not on list and 100% attending. They’re going to be simple shirts (nothing fancy) but hopefully a momentous item with 9/9/23 date on it, etc. For those listed, please respond with desired T-shirt size. Likely cotton shirts so recommend ordering one size up.
